Hello i have rooted my Tattoo succesfully, but when i start Titanium is shows the message: busybox works bu the "su"command does not elevate to root: "whoami"reports :whoami"unknown uid 100097"instead of root/uid 0. I think your Superuser Whitelist system app does not work. Anyone knows how to fix this? Thanks, Marvon
Inl the superuser App and the newest Version of Titanium Backup.

Hey Guys,
Got my Thunderbolt rooted and s-off. Running decent... But I have a few problems with bugs/wondering if there were any known fixes...
1: CWM is having problems... as in picky about when it wants to reboot... etc... should I just wait for a new flash?
2: I liked usinig Andguard on my droid... but it seems after rooting/s-off my thunderbolt and installing Superuser/CWM, I cannot use Andguard...It states it does not have SU permission and to check root or Busybox... help?
Best!
Thanks to the DEVs working hard on this!
Are other apps that require root working for you? Like maybe Titanium Backup, or Root Explorer? Heck, there's a free app called Root Checker you can download to test.
It sounds to me like you have issues with your su, superuser installation. Did you download and install SuperUser.apk from the Market? Does it give you a pop-up asking permission when you run your app? If you open SuperUser app, is the app listed as having permission allowed?
If all of that is yes, then try installing a new version of busybox. There's a busybox installer app on the Market, or you can use Titanium Backups "Problems?" button to download a copy.
Let me know if that helps out.
Hi,
my Flyer is S-OFF and rooted succesfully. But Titanium Backup is not able to get su-rights.
I see in the "Superuser" App that Titanium Backup is not listed there, but whenever I launch Titanium it is not asking for su-rights.
Any idea?
Try re-downloading Busybox.
This didnt help. Other apps that request "su" just work fine.
The problem is that TitaniumBackup just doesnt ask for "su" when I launch it, and it is not listed under su-apps in the "Superuser" application.
I had TitaniumBackup working when I had my Flyer term-rooted last week once, now as I have it S-OFF and perm-rooted TB just doesnt work anymore, as it is not asking SU permissions on launch anymore ?!
You can try upgrading Superuser inside TB. Press the "Problem?" button inside TB..
There is no such option anymore on the latest TB versions, as TB since then uses his own busybox. There is a option in "preferences" to disable this and use the Rom's busybox, but also checking that option did not help.
Is TB working on your Flyer?
The strange thing is that it worked fine when I had a temp root, and only now with perm root it is not asking for su-rights anymore...
I have the paid Pro version 3.8.9.2 and it still has the "Problems?" button. It works fine with my S-Off and rooted Flyer.
Mine is 3.9.1 (also paid), downloaded from the market.
Under problems it only has "See Wiki / Preferences / Upgrade Superuser".
Same here. Have you tried "Upgrade Superuser"?
Yes, that only shows up a link to the market, with "open" ...
I have the latest su installed. 2.3.6.3-efgh-signed.zip
That is also the su I have installed. No problem here with TB.
bah, I really dont get it then. All other apps that request "su" work fine on my flyer.
Only TB doesnt, as it doesnt ask for "su" rights on launch.
Damn!
Perhaps uninstall then re-install TB?

that's been the first thing that I tried
Also rebooted..
Nada worked.
I wrote to the TB developers now, hoping they can help.
Really puzzling! Goodluck!
do u have clockwork?
If so you may want to see if it works in a custom rom ... there are 3 out atm

It's work fine for me.
Stupid question, but you did run the Busybox Installer, and didn't just download it from the Market, right?
TB works fine for me, as well.
With the help of the Titanium Backup support staff i got my problem solved:
There was a old "su" in the directory "/data/bin". After deleting that "su" there, I ran TB again, and see: it asked for root permissions, I gave them and now TB works fine on my Flyer too!
This is how my Flyer is set up now:
Code:
Superuser.apk - com.noshufou.android.su - version 2.3.6.3 is installed!
Standard su binary location:
lrwxrwxrwx root root 2011-08-02 06:35 su -> /system/bin/su
Alternate su binary location:
/sbin/su: Permission denied
Finally with the help of TB support got it fixed !
i ave succesfully rooted my gt 10.1. Installed titanium Backup , worked.
After a factoryreset i can't install tb anymore. Installed the latest superuser but i am not able to update SU binary. Can't istall busybox either.
Suggestions?
(can i root again without harming something)
Problem solved: Rooted tab again, superuser now works well, TB is installed and can be used again.
I won't update su again......
Hi guys, i am wondering if anyone have been successful updating their superuser binary files?
My NT is rooted, and i have installed busybox through the android market busybox installer. However I keep getting a message on my NT's notification bar that my SU binary is out of date, but when i go into SU to do a binary update, it show failure to update. So far this has not cause me any issues, but it is annoying that the message keep showing up after every once a while.
Has anyone been successful running the SU binary update on their NT? if so can you share your experience on how you done it?
Thank you.
Uninstall superuser, install it back from market immediately and you should be good to go. At least this worked for me.
That doesn't sound safe to do. Doesn't android need SU permission to install the SU app. That is why most none rooted device cannot simply install SU from the market to get root...
Please correct my understanding of how root works if i am incorrect.
sideload an updated .apk of SU. It will tell you it's replacing an existing file.
I had this problem and just cleared superuser data to fix it.

How is that done?
Go to the "manage applications" menu, find superuser, and click on clear data. You'll need need something like AppMenu to get to the applications menu.

I've downloaded several root checker apps, and the all say I do not have root access, but I have root only apps installed, like greenify ad titanium backup. Whats happening here?

Your device may not be fully rooted. Which means that you have the app installed but the binary is not. Download Terminal Emulator from the Play Store. Then open it and type "su" (without quotes). If you get a new line saying "[email protected]:/ #" then you are rooted. If it says something like "su: not found" then you don't have the binary and you have to install it either via the superuser/supersu/other app (if you have a custom kernel with system write protection off, such as KofilaKernel or other) or by flashing a zip with the binary in recovery (you can find it here).
